In der Ozeanographie und Meteorologie bezeichnet der Begriff Advektion den (meist) horizontalen Transport von Eigenschaften (Masse, Wärme, Spurengase, ...) durch Wasser-, bzw. Luftströmungen. (Gegenst
Many substances have qualities of solids (elasticity) and liquids (viscosity) alike, which are described in rheological models. Depending on the conditions of the experiment, they can elastically damp
In Latin, dissipation literally means “scattering”; in physics, it refers to a process in a dynamic system during which due to e.g. friction the energy of structured macroscopic motion is transformed
Since computer tomography can be used with nearly any type of material, the range of potential applications is virtually limitless.
If the particles’ motion is observed in a rotating, i.e., earthbound coordinate system, the result is a lateral shift in the particles from their initial direction of motion – to the right (clockwise)
Laser, lidar and radar altimeters are used in aircraft and on satellites to measure their altitude above our planet’s physical surface. Lidar and laser altimeters emit collimated pulses of light and m
As such, in a Lagrangian sea-ice model, each simulation point (grid cell) follows the development of the same piece of ice. Conversely, in a Eulerian model the simulation points (grid cells) are fixed
The Arctic consists of the Arctic Ocean, adjacent seas, and parts of Canada, Denmark (Greenland), Finland, Iceland, Norway, Russia (Murmansk, Siberia, Nenets Okrug, Novaya Zemlya), Sweden and the Unit
With the aid of the model, incomplete observations can be used to create a spatially and temporally complete dataset that matches the reality as closely as possible and includes parameters not found i
